Optimising management of deferasirox therapy for patients with transfusion-dependent thalassaemia and lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Increased levels of Wilms' tumor (WT1) mRNA have been used to establish risk categories in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Raised values of WT1 have been associated with progression in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed the available bone marrow (BM) samples fr...
